Chapter 5: Pure Friendship

For ordinary people, the nineties were the best of times and the worst of times.

By the ninety-third year, it had been more than ten years since the reform and opening up, and it can be said that the phased results had been achieved, and it was at this time that the Chinese people really began to stay away from hunger, and the materials began to be slowly enriched.

"Sesame blossoming is getting higher and higher", this is a description of the living standards of the people at that time, quite vivid.

However, at this time, there are also many unsatisfactory points, and economic reform is not achieved overnight, and after the planned economy has been abolished and everything in the market has been handed over to the market for its own regulation, prices in the market have skyrocketed, and the so-called "price breakthrough" carried out in the past two years has not been considered smooth.

As soon as prices move, the people's minds will be unstable, and the tickets in their hands will be hairy, and they want to exchange them for commodities immediately, and the rush to buy will push forward the further rise of prices, which will cause social instability.

What's more, many enterprises are facing difficulties, and employees begin to face the strange and terrible term "laid-off", and employees who are laid off from enterprises can only come to the society to look for opportunities for re-employment, or simply start to learn to do business and do some small business in order to support their families.

In this context, in the city of Pingcheng, the free market began to appear, and it is becoming more and more prosperous day by day, in addition to the area demarcated by the management department, everyone can operate all day, in places where the flow of people is concentrated, such as the intersection of Qianjiakou, but also spontaneously formed an open-air market, there is a morning market in the morning, and there is a night market in the night.

After Yao Yuan made up his mind to make money by selling stew, he immediately thought of the Qianjiakou Night Market.

There is a flow of people at night, all kinds of stalls selling clothing, audio and video, books, toys one after another, and located in the middle of the intersection, it is left to a group of vendors selling snacks, from wontons, dumplings to fried rice, buns, all kinds of simple snacks, staple food, but none of them can be beaten like boiled fire, even soup with water, meat and staple food, can be full and drink.

I believe that once such a snack is pushed out, it will not be popular if it is not popular.

As for why he wants to sell it in the night market, Yao Yuan mainly thinks that after the school starts, he will go to school during the day and sell stewed stew at night, so that he can not delay both.

As for whether it will be a shame to set up a stall in the night market to do small business, this issue is not considered at all, and it is very glorious to make money with ability and craftsmanship!

I took advantage of the time of my morning jog to carefully sort out all the things I was going to do, and when I had an idea, my mood gradually became beautiful.

The wontons and fritters on the street stalls do not meet Xiaomei's taste, Xiaohuaer's favorite is the beef bun of Halal Li Ji at the intersection, Xuanxuan's steamed bun is bigger than an adult's fist, and the surface is oozing with oil flowers, which looks tempting, but you can't buy it without queuing.

Yao Yuan was carrying a plastic bag of beef buns in his hand, and walked back downstairs, but saw Xie Zhenhua carrying a gas canister downstairs.

Oops, this is the sun coming out in the west, this kid is used to rubbing rice, for fear that the food after the gas will be gone, and he actually took the initiative to help himself change the gas tank?!

Seeing Yao Yuan coming back, Xie Zhenhua said hello happily: "Where did you go early in the morning?" ”

Yao Yuan stretched out his hand and raised the plastic bag in his hand: "The big bag of beef filling is smashed!" If you want to eat, go and come back quickly, and you can catch the hot one! ”

Xie Zhenhua answered, hung the gas canister on a special cast iron hook on the back frame of the bicycle, and rode away crookedly.

......

Xiaohua'er held a bun about the size of her face, and sent it down in three or two bites, not too concerned about Yao Yuan's entrepreneurial plan, but Wang Hongyu, who sent money early in the morning, expressed her doubts: "Can you do it?" Is it not easy to boil and burn? ”

Yao Yuan spread all the money in his hand on the table, and counted it carefully, the remaining thirty-one yuan in his family plus the fifteen yuan donated by Xie Zhenhua yesterday, a total of only forty-six yuan, plus the one hundred and twenty yuan that Wang Hongyu just sent, now the cash in his hand has one hundred and sixty-six yuan, with this money as the capital, he can casually spend it to go to a stall selling stew, which is very easy.

Hearing Wang Hongyu's concerns, Yao Yuan laughed: "Today is considered a blessing for you, I will make a pot first, and you will taste it first." ”

While speaking, Xie Zhenhua struggled to carry the gas canister into the house, and smiled flatteringly at Xiaohua'er: "Sister Xiaohua, look, this gas can was changed by your brother Xie, and it cost me more than six yuan, don't say that I'm a rice eater in the future!" ”

Yao Yuan took over the conversation: "Okay, you, you will run to change the gas early in the morning, aren't you afraid that you will have nowhere to eat without gas?" ”

Xie Zhenhua was not annoyed, he washed his hands casually and rushed over, grabbed a beef bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Two, I'm Yao someone in trouble, thanks to the two of you who are willing to lend a hand and support strongly, I have a plan, I'm going to take the two of you to make a small fortune together this summer, what do you two think?" Yao Yuan took a glass of water, sat at the table and opened his mouth.

It's not that one person can't set up a stall to sell braised boil, but it's a little boring, since he has these two bad friends by his side, Yao Yuan wants to pull the two of them to play together.

Selling a few bowls of stew in the night market is like playing in Yao Yuan's feelings, and he can make some pocket money with these two ingredients while playing.

It's good to be young again, young people have no scheming, clean and simple, they said they had no money, and the two of them enthusiastically donated; There is no gas at home, so there is no need to say hello, people actually came early in the morning, carrying a gas canister to change the gas, and they all advanced their own money.

This simple friendship in the past seems to have been forgotten a little long ago, but now that I experience it again, I feel very different.

It is said that the friendship left in high school is the purest and most precious, because it will not be mixed with so many philistines and utilitarianism.

At this time, Yao Yuan felt that this statement was particularly reasonable.

In the last life, after the three musketeers of high school graduated, their respective paths can be said to be their own paths. At first, there was some contact at the beginning of the graduation, but then in the busyness of each other's life, they gradually drifted apart, and then forgot about each other.

This time, since he has made up his mind to make some money, he can't leave these two pieces of material behind, and let these two make a little fortune with him.

However, Wang Hongyu seemed to be a little disgusted: "Damn, if my father and mother knew that I set up a stall in the night market to sell water, they would have to beat me to death!" ”

Wang Hongyu's parents are the kind of artists who don't touch the spring water with their fingers, and it's not unusual for him to say such things.

The chain of contempt in society has always been there, a good young man, setting up a stall to do small business, not to mention that other artists will look down on it, even the so-called high-level intellectuals in the neighborhood of the courtyard will think this thing is quite strange.

In these years, the people who can give up their faces to set up stalls to sell goods are all those intellectual young people who have returned to their hometowns, laid-off workers, etc., who are not forced by life and really have nowhere to find food, who wants to go to the street to do business?

Yao Yuan, as a dignified high school student and a disciple of a big yard, dared to go out to sell stew, not only did they show their faces, but even their parents' faces were also sacrificed.

And Xie Zhenhua has no worries about this at all, in his opinion, it is fun and a little exciting to be able to set up a stall to sell things in the night market, and he is a little dissatisfied with Wang Hongyu's attitude: "What are you pretending to be?" Yuan'er makes ready-made stew, so that we can still make money by doing things, why are you talking about your parents? ”

Xiao Hua'er raised her eyebrows a little on the side: "Who are you talking about?" Brother Hongyu promised to teach me to play the guitar every day, and I didn't have time to fiddle with those stinky sewers with you! ”

Yao Yuan "hissed" in his mouth, why did he suddenly feel a toothache......

I didn't know how to make a stubble for a long time, so I simply put the money on the table into my pocket: "Don't talk so much nonsense first, why don't you make a pot today for you to taste!" Let's go, let's go to the market and go to stock! ”

......

said that they wanted to make food, and everyone suddenly had no opinions, and the three of them went out while playing with each other.

According to the different materials, it is divided into boiled small intestine and boiled large intestine.

The boiled large intestine is more plump because of the more intestinal oil and thicker meat, and the current people still generally lack oil and water in their stomachs, so Yao Yuan prepared the pig intestine this time.

The other ingredients in a bowl of braised fire are all similar, pig lungs are indispensable, and then there are fried tofu and half-baked dough cakes, as for the traditional indispensable slices of pork belly, Yao Yuan is also ready to give up this time.

Originally, it was prepared to be sold at the night market, as long as it tasted good, the cost of pork belly was a bit expensive, and it was not suitable to buy a bowl of stew at any price, and it was not suitable to give more or less pork belly.

Just save it!

As for what pig hearts, pig lungs and the like are used in some recipes, Yao Yuan thinks that it is all nonsense, and it is okay to make trouble for himself, and it will not help the production at all.

Therefore, it is very convenient to make such a bowl of stew, and there are only four main raw materials: pig intestine, pig lung, tofu, and fire.

Xie Zhenhua has a good mother, who works in a Qianjiakou non-staple food store, although the salary is not high, but buying some grain, oil, non-staple food, and meat is undoubtedly close to the water, not to mention that it is only a dozen catties of tofu and pigs in the water.

It's a bit troublesome to burn the fire used in it, so you can only brand it out one by one, and you can't be lazy anymore.

In fact, the earliest braised food was not burned, and when diners bought braised stew from the vendors, they would let the stall owner heat up the dry food they brought with them in the pot and cut them into the bowl together.

Later, the vendor who bought the stew simply provided the fire and cooked it in the soup together.

Therefore, there are no certain rules for what the fire in the boiled fire should look like, whether it is a dead dough cake or a hair dough cake.

It's just that Yao Yuan thinks that it is more appropriate to use semi-hot dough cakes, which can not only absorb the soup but also retain a certain taste.

Therefore, when the raw materials are purchased, the first thing Yao Yuan does is to reconcile and serve the white noodles first.

I chose this product because it is easy to make.

But when it really operates, I find that there is no trouble in the kitchen, the large intestine needs to be washed and rubbed, the lungs need to be flushed, and when the three of them start to be busy in the kitchen, the smell that is not very good begins to permeate the house.

There is no way, it is not a high-grade pig drainage, and it has to be dealt with cleanly, which is the first place.
